sterling silver and gemstone jewelry

Inspired by Balinese royalty, Buana designs an elegant necklace, centered by a pendant with a face hand-carved of bone. The face wears a crown of sterling silver, elaborated with intricate spiral patterns. Totaling over one carat, gemstones of amethyst, peridot, and garnet decorate the crown. Buana names this accessory "Sukawati," after the famous art market in Bali.

Hanzi are characters used in Chinese writing. As early as the sixth century A.D., many of these characters began to be simplified and adopted into Japanese writing, where they're known as kanji, a term that is more widely used in the West. Artisans in Yiwu, China, create these pendants by using sterling silver and the lost-wax casting method. Each character emulates the sweeping brushstrokes of traditional calligraphy. Choose based on birth month, favorite color, or simply the symbol that resonates with you most.
